72 UNGA: Statement by the delegation of the Republic of Cuba to the United Nations at the high-level event on the International Decade for Action "Water for Sustainable Development” (2018-2028). New York, 23 March 2018.

Mr. President,

Cuba associates itself with the statements made by Egypt on behalf of the G77 and Maldives on behalf of the Small Island Developing States.

We welcome the convening of this timely high-level event to launch the International Decade for Action "Water for Sustainable Development", 2018-2028.

The issue of water is at the heart of human survival. As it is wisely asserted: "Water is Life". Access to this resource is a human right whose full enjoyment by all is an objective yet to be reached.

72 UNGA: Statement by the Representative of Cuba at the Special Commemorative Ceremony to pay tribute to the Commander-in-Chief of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro Ruz. New York, November 28, 2017.

Dear Comrades,

On behalf of the people of Cuba, their government and the relatives, we express our gratitude for your attendance at this commemorative ceremony dedicated to paying homage to the life and work of the Commander-in-Chief of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro Ruz.

Fidel Castro or Fidel, as we Cubans simply call him, was a man who never sought the path where advantage lay, but rather the path where duty lay. He had a deep humanistic vocation, a solid Christian education, a solid Marxist education, and a solid universal revolutionary background.

72 UNGA: Statement by the Cuban delegation in the High-Level Donor Conference for Recovery of the Caribbean after Hurricanes Irma and Maria. New York, 21 November 2017.

Mr. Chairman,

We are deeply grateful for the convening of this meeting in such difficult times for the countries affected by the destructive hurricanes Irma and Maria.

The increasingly devastating and frequent brunt of natural disasters confirms that climate change is a threat to the survival of humanity and to the sustainable development of peoples.

The recent passage of hurricanes Irma and Maria through the Caribbean region demonstrated once again the vulnerabilities of Small Island Developing States in the face of natural events of this magnitude.
